Michael Jackson Prank Called Russell Crowe

Russell Crowe firmly believes the King of Pop prank called him repeatedly over a period of several years although it’s unclear how he verified this. Clearly it is more flattering to believe the most famous music artist ever is calling you and not the bellhop who you stiffed and thinks you’re a tool bag:

“For two or three fucking years, I never met him, shook his hand, but he found out the name I stayed in hotels under, so it didn’t matter where I was, he’d ring up, do this kind of thing, like you did when you were 10, you know… [He’d say,] ‘Is Mr. Wall there? Is Mrs. Wall there? Are there any Walls there? Then what’s holding the roof up? Ha ha.”

Many questions arise. Could you not change your fake name? How did he know which hotel you were at? Most pertinently, are you lying about this? This could be a grandiose hallucination on par with the sun is following me or Lean Dunham is witty or whatever caused Russell Crowe to freak out in hotel rooms and start throwing shit. I’m guessing it wasn’t Pop in a Can jokes. Crack in a Pipe seems more likely. When Crowe alerts us to to his next Michael Jackson prank phone call this will all be settled.
